Okay, dug out the Apple ][e, DuoDisk, and ImageWriter
II I was given some
time back, got a SuperSerial card installed and configured and the
ImageWriter II works fine. DuoDisk works too, but what is the command to
select a specific drive?
At this point all I can read/write to is the boot drive (left-most drive)
I'm REALLY rusty on my Apple II stuff, but IIRC, you swap drives with the
D command (D1 for drive one D2 for drive 2).
So for a catalog, it is "catalog D2" to show what is on drive 2. And IIRC
once it is issued, it stays on the last drive used, so from there, RUN
and similar commands will effect drive 2. You would issue a new "catalog
D1" to swap back to drive 1.
Ok, that is my rusty as hell rememberance (I haven't done anything on an
Apple II in YEARS other than boot them to see if they come on), so I am
eager to see just how wrong my memory is.
